This is number ten for me and my first Venetian cutaway. All in all I like the way it turned out.

The details:
Martin style 00 size 14th fret Venetian cutaway
-Spalted zebrawood back and sides
-Adirondack red spruce top
-Mahogany neck
-Spruce bracing
-Spanish cedar linings
-Wenge bindings
-Rosette, tail wedge and purfling made from wenge, maple and bubinga
-Ebony fingerboard with zebrawood binding
-Bridge made from Brazilian rosewood, Zebrawood and bubinga
-Brazilian rosewood headplate
-Zebrawood backstrap
-Gotoh tuners

Next up (after finishing my Bouzouki) is from the GAL plans for the Stahl style 6 guitar by the Larson Brothers.

Turned out beautiful John.
The Spalting on the back, is that the zebra wood, or something else?. Looks neat.

Thanks Kevin. It's part of the Zebrawood. I haven't seen another like it.
